Racing

The
FIA
(the international motorsports sanctioning body run by
French Bureaucrats) has never really had a good understanding
of motorsports in the US.
Relations between the various and sundry US based racing bodies are
erratic at best,
with the occasional sanctioning body war thrown in for good measure,
breaking up the periods of apparent peace.
It's enough to drive a french civil servant nuts.

A list of North American sanctioning bodies is being developed
in the Organizations section of this web site.
